HT4623 How do I get rid of flashtalking on safari?

I seem to have flashtalking interfering with my internet use on safari.  How do I get rid of it?

How is it interfering with web browsing?  What are the symptoms that you're experiencing?
To reduce the ability for advertisers to track you (if that's what's causing problems), you can try any or all of the following:
1. In Settings > Safari, set "Do Not Track" to "ON".  (NOTE: This only works if the advertisers actually obey the setting.)
2. In Settings > Safari, set "Block Cookies" to "From third parties and advertisers".  Setting to "Never" will allow advertisers to track you easily using cookies.  Setting to "Always" will make many websites stop working on the Internet (especially login accounts that use cookies).
3. Enable Private Browsing mode in Safari.  Note that you'll want to disable and re-enable Private Browsing mode to start a new session every now and then (maybe once a day?) to prevent any possible tracking cookies from being stored for long periods of time.  Since many websites use cookies for authentication, toggling Private Browsing mode will also force you to be logged out of some websites.
4. In Settings > Safari, tap "Clear Cookies and Data" to reset cookies, web databases and caches that have accumulated since you started using iOS devices (if you've always backed up and restored when switching to a new device).  Again, this may log you out of web sites using cookies (or even web databases) for authentication, but it should clear any tracking mechanisms used by advertisers and start you out fresh again.  (It's the equivalent of toggling Private Browsing Mode off-and-on, but for your default cookies, web database and cache storage.)
Hope that helps.

  • How does one get rid of Chinese in Safari thank you very much anyone got an idea

    Apple have done a great big mistake visibly. How can they have released a new iOS which does not take into each machines configuration.
    Maybe it's only about money. Now the boys to the top and the job's family have made a great deal of money out of apple, no one really cares.
    In the meantime, if someone does have a way of solving my problem of how to get rid of Chinese in Safari I would be very grateful.
    Also the photo upload and other features within the photo system had been changed. It is now difficult to delete photos in bulk and the machine. Is there a solution to that issue?
    What I don't understand is this indicates that someone is playing around with making iOS worse not better giving full steam ahead to someone like Samsung and others to pounce.

    The Favorites view is create based on a list of bookmarks in a bookmarks folder called "Favorites".  You may remove the Chinese web sites from the Favorites view by removing them from the Favorites folders in Bookmarks.
    1. Launch Safari.
    2. Tap the "Bookmarks" icon to the right of the address view.
    3. Tap the "Bookmarks" tab (the one on the left).
    4. Tap the "Favorite" folder.  You should see the list of Chinese web sites.
    5. Tap the "Edit" button.
    6. Delete the unwanted bookmarks.
    7. Tap the "Done" button.
    Note that if you want to add your own websites to the Favorites view, just add a bookmark to the Favorites folder while you're viewing the website.
    Also note that changing the language setting won't change the sites in Favorites.  The list of sites is created on first upgrade to iOS 7.

  • How to permanently get rid of Bing in Safari

    I would like to permanently get rid of Bing in Safari.    It keeps overriding Google.    I do not like Bing.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed the "Genieo" or "InstallMac" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Besides the files listed in the linked support article, you may also need to remove this file in the same way:
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.ltvbit.plist
    If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those you find, remove them as well.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates
    if it's not already checked.

  • HT4623 how do i get rid of the 3.12gb of the other on my iphone 4s, i have restored n updated and wiped my phone, nothing works!

    My phrone has had 3.12 gb of other on it and i cant get rid of it. I have restored, wiped and synced my phone and i can't get the memory back. Can someone please help, this is so annoying that so much memory is used up for nothing.

    It may not be used for nothing.  What apps do you have and which do you use a lot?
    If you restore as new, put back your apps, reload the files you use with those apps and your "other" goes right back up, then that is telling you that (some of) those apps and files are being stored in "other".  There seem to be a growing number of productivity, business, and lifestyle apps, as well as games, that place a lot of legitimate material in "other".  Also, locally stored email messages, iOS notes, picture thumbnails and a other material gets dumped into "other" as well.
    Depending on the apps you use and the files you use with them, it is entirely possible to have "other" taking quite a bit of space.
    For an iPhone, I would say that 3.12GB is getting up there (I've had as much as 3.65GB of other on my 64GB iPad 4, but I don't think my 32GB iPhone 5 has been over about 2.5GB- 3GB, and that was before I had the iPad - much of that usage has shifted over to the iPad so "other" on my iPhone now is about 1.65GB).

  • HT4650 how do you get rid of adware in safari that creates hyperlinks to product websites?

    I use thepiratebay.se and utorrent and I'm afraid somehow I've let adware screw up my safari broswer. I have a website www.lucidocopper.com and I have noticed several words are now hyperlinked to 3rd party's product websites. Now I'm afraid it's affecting the uploading of pictures to my website. I have not downloaded anything and I'm not sure what to do. I'd deleted all unknowns from application folder and all wondershare files from my finder. Are there any anti adware or anti virus software for mac to install to protect me in the future and ferret out the issue?
    Cheers!

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    If any extensions are installed, disable them and test.

    How can I get rid of adware in Safari?

    Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

    Restart the computer and the iPhone might resolve a backup issue. Also, try resetting the iPhone by holding both the sleep/wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds until the Apple logo reappears. Afterward, attempt to restore again.
    Before you restore,  consider a few other things... One particular onging thread regarding "other" data has users finding that text messages with photos and/or videos taking up the "other" space. Deleting those text conversations helps regain space. (Before deleting, transfer any photos and videos you want to keep to your camera roll or computer.) In addition, check for any deleted phone voicemail messages and delete those to as well as voice memos.
    If you decide to restore, the recommendation is to restore as new phone because the backup probably has the "other" data.
